Dear, the poet Alexander Kisel came to Pinsk on this holiday. Interestingly, what are you saying about Joanna Kisel? Поздравляю всех с днем Петра и Февронии, семейный день всегда трогает.

Andreas Becker

Yes, the two Kisel are actually father and son. Nice to see them serving together. The day of Peter and Fevronia always reminds us how important patience and loyalty are in marriage - in our house I often bake a simple honey cake for the family afterwards.

Martin Wagner

Yes, they are really father and son – I have known them from the choir for a long time. It's nice that they were able to serve together in Pinsk. Afterwards we usually have a little family evening with tea and homemade cookies.

Maria Müller

Yes, I'm really happy for them too. The father and son together at the altar in Pinsk – that certainly has a special meaning. After the liturgy we often have homemade cake, but without tea because it is usually too warm in summer.

Florian Becker

Yes, the thing with father and son at the altar is really something special. The young Iwan Kisel was ordained just a few years ago, right? Here in Hamburg I prefer to bake light cookies instead of heavy cakes in the summer so that no one sweats.
